> Release connector resources when entering FAILED state
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-16987
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-16987
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: connect
> Reporter: Greg Harris
> Priority: Minor
>
> Connectors will enter the FAILED state if an unexpected exception appears.
> Connectors may also have resources associated with them that must be
> explicitly cleaned up by calling stop().
> Currently, this cleanup only takes place when the connectors are requested to
> shut down and the state transits to UNASSIGNED. This cleanup can be done
> earlier, so that resources are not held while the connector or task is in the
> FAILED state.
